Motivation, Performance, and Pay
 Incentives
– Financial rewards paid to workers whose
production exceeds a predetermined standard.
 Frederick Taylor
– Popularized scientific management and the use of
financial incentives in the late 1800s.
• Systematic soldiering: the tendency of employees to
work at the slowest pace possible and to produce at the
minimum acceptable level.

12–3
Individual Differences
 Law of individual differences
– The fact that people differ in personality, abilities,
values, and needs.
– Different people react to different incentives in
different ways.
– Managers should be aware of employee needs and
fine-tune the incentives offered to meets their
needs.
– Money is not the only motivator.

Employee Preferences for Noncash Incentives
*The survey polled a random nationwide sample of 1,004 American adults. Among those polled, 851 were working or retired
Americans, whose responses represent the percentage cited in this release. The survey was conducted June 4–7, 1999, by
Wirthlin Worldwide. The margin of error is ±3.1%. Responses total less than 100 because 4% responded “something else”.

Needs and Motivation
 Abraham Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs
– Five increasingly higher-level needs:
• physiological (food, water, sex)
• security (a safe environment)
• social (relationships with others)
• self-esteem (a sense of personal worth)
• self-actualization (becoming the desired self)
– Lower level needs must be satisfied before higher
level needs can be addressed or become of
interest to the individual.

12–6
Needs and Motivation (cont’d)
 Herzberg’s Hygiene–Motivator theory
– Hygienes (extrinsic job factors)
• Inadequate working conditions, salary, and incentive pay
can cause dissatisfaction and prevent satisfaction.
– Motivators (intrinsic job factors)
• Job enrichment (challenging job, feedback and
recognition) addresses higher-level (achievement, selfactualization) needs.
– The best way to motivate someone is to organize
the job so that doing it helps satisfy the person’s
higher-level needs.

12–7
Needs and Motivation (cont’d)
 Edward Deci
– Intrinsically motivated behaviors are motivated by
the underlying need for competence and selfdetermination.
– Offering an extrinsic reward for an intrinsicallymotivated act can conflict with the acting
individual’s internal sense of responsibility.
– Some behaviors are best motivated by job
challenge and recognition, others by financial
rewards.

12–8
Instrumentality and Rewards
 Vroom’s Expectancy Theory
– A person’s motivation to exert some level of effort
is a function of three things:
• Expectancy: that effort will lead to performance.
• Instrumentality: the connection between performance
and the appropriate reward.
• Valence: the value the person places on the reward.
– Motivation = E x I x V
• If any factor (E, I, or V) is zero, then there is no
motivation to work toward the reward.
• Employee confidence building and training, accurate
appraisals, and knowledge of workers’ desired rewards
can increase employee motivation.

12–9
Types of Incentive Plans
 Pay-for-performance plans
– Variable pay (organizational focus)
• A team or group incentive plan that ties pay to some
measure of the firm’s overall profitability.
– Variable pay (individual focus)
• Any plan that ties pay to individual productivity or
profitability, usually as one-time lump payments.

12–10
Types of Incentive Plans (cont’d)
 Pay-for-performance plans
– Individual incentive/recognition programs
– Sales compensation programs
– Team/group-based variable pay programs
– Organizationwide incentive programs
– Executive incentive compensation programs

12–11
Individual Incentive Plans
 Piecework Plans
– The worker is paid a sum (called a piece rate) for
each unit he or she produces.
• Straight piecework: A fixed sum is paid for each unit the
worker produces under an established piece rate
standard. An incentive may be paid for exceeding the
piece rate standard.
• Standard hour plan: The worker gets a premium equal
to the percent by which his or her work performance
exceeds the established standard.
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–12
Individual Incentive Plans (cont’d)
 Pro and cons of piecework
– Easily understandable, equitable, and powerful
incentives
– Employee resistance to changes in standards or
work processes affecting output
– Quality problems caused by an overriding output
focus
– Possibility of violating minimum wage standards
– Employee dissatisfaction when incentives either
cannot be earned due to external factors or are
withdrawn due to a lack of need for output
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–13
Individual Incentive Plans (cont’d)
 Merit pay
– A permanent cumulative salary increase the firm
awards to an individual employee based on his or
her individual performance.
 Merit pay options
– Annual lump-sum merit raises that do not make
the raise part of an employee’s base salary.
– Merit awards tied to both individual and
organizational performance.

12–14
Lump-Sum Award Determination Matrix
(an example)
To determine the dollar value of each employee’s incentive award: (1) multiply
the employee’s annual, straight-time wage or salary as of June 30 times his or
her maximum incentive award and (2) multiply the resultant product by the
appropriate percentage figure from this table. For example, if an employee had
an annual salary of $20,000 on June 30 and a maximum incentive award of 7%
and if her performance and the organization’s performance were both “excellent,”
the employee’s award would be $1,120: ($20,000 × 0.07 × 0.80 = $1,120).

Individual Incentive Plans (cont’d)
 Incentives for professional employees
– Professional employees are those whose work
involves the application of learned knowledge to
the solution of the employer’s problems.
• Lawyers, doctors, economists, and engineers.
 Possible incentives
–
–
–
–
Bonuses, stock options and grants, profit sharing
Better vacations, more flexible work hours
improved pension plans
Equipment for home offices

12–16
Individual Incentive Plans (cont’d)
 Recognition-based awards
– Recognition has a positive impact on performance,
either alone or in conjunction with financial
rewards.
• Combining financial rewards with nonfinancial ones
produced performance improvement in service firms
almost twice the effect of using each reward alone.
– Day-to-day recognition from supervisors, peers,
and team members is important.
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–17
Individual Incentive Plans (cont’d)
 Online award programs
– Programs offered by online incentives firms that
improve and expedite the awards process.
• Broader range of awards
• More immediate rewards
 Information technology and incentives
– Enterprise incentive management (EIM)
• Software that automates the planning, calculation,
modeling and management of incentive compensation
plans, enabling companies to align their employees with
corporate strategy and goals.
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–18
Incentives for Salespeople
 Salary plan
– Straight salaries
• Best for: prospecting (finding new clients), account
servicing, training customer’s salesforce, or participating
in national and local trade shows.
 Commission plan
– Pay is only a percentage of sales
•
•
•
•
Keeps sales costs proportionate to sales revenues.
May cause a neglect of nonselling duties.
Can create wide variation in salesperson’s income.
Likelihood of sales success may linked to external
factors rather than to salesperson’s performance.
• Can increase turnover of salespeople.

12–19
Incentives for Salespeople (cont’d)
 Combination plan
– Pay is a combination of salary and commissions,
usually with a sizable salary component.
– Plan gives salespeople a floor (safety net) to their
earnings.
– Salary component covers company-specified
service activities.
– Plans tend to become complicated, and
misunderstandings can result.
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–20
Specialized Combination Plans
 Commission-plus-drawing-account plan
– Commissions are paid but a draw on future
earnings helps the salesperson to get through low
sales periods.
 Commission-plus-bonus plan
– Pay is mostly based on commissions.
– Small bonuses are paid for directed activities like
selling slow-moving items.
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–21
Setting Sales Quotas
 Whether to lock quotas in for a period of time?
 Have quotas been communicated quotas to the salesforce within one
month of the start of the period?
 Does the salesforce know exactly how its quotas are set?
 Do you combine bottom-up information (like account forecasts) with
top-down requirements (like the company business plan)?
 Do 60% to 70% of the salesforce generally hit their quota?
 Do high performers hit their targets consistently?
 Do low performers show improvement over time?
 Are quotas stable through the performance period?
 Are returns and debookings reasonably low?
 Has your firm generally avoided compensation-related lawsuits?
 Is 10% of the salesforce achieving higher performance than previously?
 Is 5% to 10% of the salesforce achieving below quota performance and
receiving coaching?

12–22
Team/Group Variable Pay Incentive Plans
 Team or group incentive plan
– A plan in which a production standard is set for a
specific work group, and its members are paid
incentives if the group exceeds the production
standard.
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–23
How to Design Team Incentives
 Set individual work standards
– Set work standards for each team member and
then calculate each member’s output.
– Members are paid based on one of three formulas:
• All members receive the same pay earned by the highest
producer.
• All members receive the same pay earned by the lowest
producer.
• All members receive same pay equal to the average pay
earned by the group.
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–24
How to Design Team Incentives (cont’d)
 Use an engineered production standard
based on the output of the group as a whole.
– All members receive the same pay, based on the
piece rate for the group’s job.
• This group incentive can use the piece rate or standard
hour plan, but the latter is more prevalent.
 Tie rewards to goals based on an overall
standard of group performance
– If the firm reaches its goal, the employees share
in a percentage of the improvement (in labor costs
saved).
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–25
Organizationwide Variable Pay Plans
 Profit-sharing plans
– Cash plans
• Employees receive cash shares of the firm’s profits at
regular intervals.
– The Lincoln incentive system
• Profits are distributed to employees based on their
individual merit rating.
– Deferred profit-sharing plans
• A predetermined portion of profits is placed in each
employee’s account under a trustee’s supervision.
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–26
Organizationwide Variable Pay Plans
(cont’d)
 Employee stock ownership plan (ESOP)
– A corporation annually contributes its own stock—
or cash (with a limit of 15% of compensation) to
be used to purchase the stock—to a trust
established for the employees.
– The trust holds the stock in individual employee
accounts and distributes it to employees upon
separation from the firm if the employee has
worked long enough to earn ownership of the
stock.
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–27
Advantages of ESOPs
 Employees
– ESOPs help employees develop a sense of
ownership in and commitment to the firm, and
help to build teamwork.
– No taxes on ESOPs are due until employees
receive a distribution from the trust, usually at
retirement when their tax rate is lower.
 Shareholders of closely held corporations
– Helps to diversify their assets by placing their
shares of company stock into an ESOP trust and
allowing them to purchase other marketable
securities for themselves in their place.
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–28
Advantages of ESOPs (cont’d)
 The company
– A tax deduction equal to the fair market value of
the shares transferred to the trustee.
– An income tax deduction for dividends paid on
ESOP-owned stock.
– The Employee Retirement Income Security Act
(ERISA) allows a firm to borrow against employee
stock held in trust and then repay the loan in
pretax rather than after-tax dollars.
– Firms offering ESOP had higher shareholder
returns than did those not offering ESOPs.

12–29
Scanlon Plan
 Scanlon plan (Joseph Scanlon, 1937)
– Philosophy of cooperation
• No “us” and “them” attitudes that inhibit employees from
developing a sense of ownership in the company.
– Identity
• Employees understand the business’s mission and how it
operates in terms of customers, prices, and costs.
– Competence
• The plan depends a high level of competence from
employees at all levels.
– Sharing of benefits formula
• Employees share in 75% of the savings (reduction in
payroll expenses divided by total sales).
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–30
Gainsharing Plans
 Gainsharing
– An incentive plan that engages many or all
employees in a common effort to achieve a
company’s productivity objectives.
– Cost-savings gains are shared among employees
and the company.
 Rucker plan
 Improshare
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–31
Implementing a Gainsharing Plan
1. Establish general plan objectives.
2. Choose specific performance measures.
3. Decide on a funding formula.
4. Decide on a method for dividing and distributing the
employees’ share of the gains.
5. Choose the form of payment.
6. Decide how often to pay bonuses.
7. Develop the involvement system.
8. Implement the plan.

12–33
At-Risk Variable Pay Plans
 At-risk variable pay plans that put some
portion of the employee’s weekly pay at risk.
– If employees meet or exceed their goals, they
earn incentives.
– If they fail to meet their goals, they forgo some of
the pay they would normally have earned.
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–34
Short-Term Incentives for Managers And
Executives
 Annual bonus
– Plans that are designed to motivate short-term
performance of managers and are tied to
company profitability.
• Eligibility basis: job level, base salary, and impact on
profitability
• Fund size basis : nondeductible formula (net income) or
deductible formula (profitability)
• Individual awards: personal performance/contribution
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–35
Multiplier Approach to Determining
Annual Bonus
Note: To determine the dollar amount of a manager’s award, multiply the
maximum possible (target) bonus by the appropriate factor in the matrix.

Long-Term Incentives for Managers And
Executives
 Stock option
– The right to purchase a specific number of shares
of company stock at a specific price during a
specific period of time.
• Nonqualified stock option
• Indexed option
• Premium priced option
– Options have no value (go “underwater”) if the
price of the stock drops below the option’s strike
price (the option’s stock purchase price).

Other Executive Incentives
 Golden parachutes
– Payments companies make to departing
executives in connection with a change in
ownership or control of a company.
 Guaranteed loans to directors
– Loans provided to buy company stock.
– A highly risky and now frowned upon practice.

12–39
Creating an Executive Compensation Plan
 Define the strategic context for the executive
compensation program.
 Shape each component of the package to focus the
manager on achieve the firm’s strategic goals.
 Create a stock option plan to meet the needs of the
executives and the company and its strategy.
 Check the executive compensation plan for
compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements
and for tax effectiveness.
 Install a process for reviewing and evaluating the
executive compensation plan whenever a major
business change occurs.

12–40
Why Incentive Plans Fail
 Performance pay can’t replace good management.
 You get what you pay for.
 “Pay is not a motivator.”
 Rewards punish.
 Rewards rupture relationships.
 Rewards can have unintended consequences.
 Rewards may undermine responsiveness.
 Rewards undermine intrinsic motivation.
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved.
12–41
Implementing Effective Incentive Plans
 Ask: Is effort clearly instrumental in obtaining the
reward?
 Link the incentive with your strategy.
 Make sure effort and rewards are directly related.
 Make the plan easy for employees to understand.
 Set effective standards.
 View the standard as a contract with your employees.
 Get employees’ support for the plan.
 Use good measurement systems.
 Emphasize long-term as well as short-term success.
 Adopt a comprehensive, commitment-oriented
approach.

12–42
HR Activities that Build Commitment
 Clarifying and communicating the goals and mission
of the organization.
 Guaranteeing organizational justice.
 Creating a sense of community by emphasizing
teamwork and encouraging employees to interact.
 Supporting employee development by emphasizing
promotion from within, developmental activities, and
career-enhancing activities.
